The box should contain the Elite-15i unit, rack mount kit, owner’s manual, and warranty registration card. If anything
is missing, please contact Furman Customer Service. Fill out and return your warranty registration card. Registration is
recommended because it can be used to establish whether the unit is within the warranty period should your original
ownership documents be lost, and it assists us in informing you about upgrades or other vital information.
Safety Information - Warnings
Please read and observe all of the safety and operating instructions before the Elite-15i is operated. Retain these instructions
for future reference.
Do not disassemble or modify in any way. No user-serviceable parts inside
Keep away from moisture and avoid excessive humidity
Do not allow liquids or foreign objects to enter the unit
The Elite-15i should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
The power supply cord or plug has been frayed or cut.
Objects have fallen or liquid has spilled into the unit.
The Elite-15i has been exposed to rain or other moisture.
The Elite-15i does not appear to operate normally, or exhibits a marked change in performance.
The Elite-15i has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
The Elite-15i requires that a safety ground be present for proper operation. Any attempt to operate the Elite-15i without a
safety ground is considered improper operation.
Power Source
The power source to which the Elite-15i is connected should be adequate for use at 15 Amps. The Elite-15i will operate with
a 10 Amp service outlet; however, nuisance tripping at the circuit breaker panel may result if the systems continuous current
draw exceeds 10 Amps.
Placement
The Elite-15i is manufactured with four rubber feet for placement on any table, cabinet, shelf, or floor. These rubber feet may
be easily removed with a standard Philips screw driver when rack mounting adjacent to other components. Placement or
proximity to other components is not critical, and the Elite-15i does not produce any appreciable heat under standard use.
The Elite-15i may also be rack mounted in a standard 19” rack by attaching the Elite-15i rack ears. These rack ears (contained
within the plastic rack kit package) mount flush with the back portion of the Elite-15i’s front panel. They are attached to the
chassis by installing each rack ear with (3) pan-head Philips screws contained within the Elite-15i rack mounting kit. The
third screw used for each rack ear is for the center hole, located towards the rear and aids in stabilizing the unit when rack
mounted.
Connection
AC Cable Routing
The Elite-15i’s male Edison AC cord must be connected to an appropriate socket (see current rating recommendation above).
Connecting Components to the Digital - Video Component AC Outlet Banks
The Elite-15i’s two “Video Component AC Outlets” should be employed for critical video components such as DVD players,
projectors, plasma, or LCD video screens.
Connecting Components to the Linear Filtering Power Banks
The Elite-15i’s four rear panel and one front panel “Audio – Audio-Video AC Outlets” should be employed for any component
not connected to the “Video Component AC Outlets,” These outlets still possess exceptional AC noise filtering to maximize
system performance.
